Active galactic nuclei (AGN) winds and jets are potential drivers of multi-phase outflows and can significantly modify the interstellar medium (ISM) properties of their host galaxies. The Quasar Feedback (QSOFEED) project aims to investigate the impact of multi-phase quasar-driven outflows and jets on the nuclear regions of quasar host galaxies

The European Solar Telescope (EST) will be the biggest solar telescope in Europe and it is currently concluding its preliminary design that includes adaptive optics from its first light. In this phase of the project, the feasibility of the project is demonstrated and the design must meet the requirements after having mitigated the major risks. The

Ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs) are attractive candidates to probe cosmological models and test theories of galaxy formation at low masses; however, they are difficult to detect because of their low surface brightness. In the Local Group a handful of UDGs have been found to date, most of which are satellites of the Milky Way and M31, and only two are
